Not bad, but I prefer MU -

(U2) [(M' U' M U') (M' U' M' U')]*2

Not bad, but I prefer SU/MU/RU
U2 S2 U S' U2 S U S U S U2 S' U S
y M2 U M U2 M' U M' U M' U2 M U M'
U' R U R' U' r' U2 R U R U' R2 U2 r

U2 S2 U S' U2 S U S U S U2 S' U S
y M2 U M U2 M' U M' U M' U2 M U M'
U' R U R' U' r' U2 R U R U' R2 U2 r

In that case, try this: R' U2' R2 U R' U' R' U2' r U R U' r'

PB with it is about .82

 

[Cool Frog]

I personally like the inverse of that alg a bit better.

I learned an alg for all U cases (U,U2,U') and yours is the one for UF/UR

 

[aronpm]

I use both M2 U M U2 M' U M' U M' U2 M U M' and r U R' U' r' U2 R U R U' R2 U2 R, depending on the angle

get my pb with this
L F2 D2 L' D2 U2 R2 D2 F2 D2 R' U L U L' R' F' U' F' L' B2

5 edges and 2 corners well permuted. omg, so easy scramble.
nice pb, btw.

 

[verdito]

i solved with OP because i saw so many pieces well permuted and i memo faster with OP than TuRBo btw what do you think about U2 corners method guys?

 

[AbstractAlg]

U2 is okay, but in case you have U corners you need to know TuRBo. "U2" is method based on commutators. In my solves, if I find two non in U layer nor in the D face stickers in my cycle I will do "U2" because that's actually one of the easy-to-see comms with super fast execution.

5x5 BLD WR by Marcell Endrey 7:59 according to Viktor Kalmar, who was also the judge.
Edit: I knew this event had a lot of potential to break a WR.
Also a 7:49 DNF because he forgot 3 centers.

That's awesome. Sub 8! Finally the wr got "updated"... it was out of date. Marcell is great.

Completely skipped sub-9 and beyond. Amazing.

[drewsopchak]

No idea, I am posting this info because I saw it on facebook.
Edit: Viktor Kalmar's post: "3:20 memo no video "

blls.

Was it 1st April joke?

 

[aronpm]

Wow, I didn't even think that it could be a joke. It was yesterday, so I don't know.

I heard about it before you posted (it wasn't April Fools anywhere in the world)

 

[DrKorbin]

Now it is shown on the WCA site, so it is really not a joke.
The first success and WR at once? Beat previous WR by 2 minutes? Marcell, you rule!
Congratulations!

Learning a new memo method (Speffz with a slight variation, for auditory letters memo) in time for my first comp on Saturday. If I can't by then, I'll stick with the Limeback corner memo, but that is really slow for me.

 

[AbstractAlg]

Speffz (and variations) are uber for mbld, but Limeback's memo is still fastest corner memo for me, but sometimes fails with accuracy. Good luck!

 

[DrKorbin]

What is Limeback's memo? It's when you tap stickers?

 

[AbstractAlg]

What is Limeback's memo? It's when you tap stickers?

tapping + 6 letters for each face color. tapping helps you remember permutation, letters orientation.
